The designated member of the Knesset, Attorney Tali Gottliebcaused an uproar yesterday after claiming that there is no need for the superseding clause or to respect the High Court ruling that annuls laws.
Chairman of the Haifa District Bar Association, Adv Tammy Ullmanspoke today (Thursday) with Yoav Mintz on Radio North 104.5FM and commented on her words: “Attorney Gottlieb, in other words, when the Supreme Court in its session as the High Court of Justice, decides to discuss issues related to the Knesset, do not carry out the judgments, the decisions, Just tweet about what the Supreme Court as the High Court decides.”
“This is a very serious statement, a statement that has no place in a reformed country, a statement that has no place in a democratic country, and that’s why I got kicked out. I can’t calm down about it. I think it’s very serious that a lawyer and also a citizen tells other citizens, don’t do what the Supreme Court says do. Says in his rulings! Not that judges whisper in our ears! In his ruling: 1, 2, 3, she says it’s empty of content, this means, it has no weight! Not to carry out what was said! Very serious in my view! A call to rebellion and civil chaos “, she added.
Attorney Ullman claimed that Gultiv’s words could lead to anarchy. “In the same way, I would like to tweet about the laws of the Knesset and say: I don’t like what the Knesset decided because the person who stands at the head of the country is Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu, I’m tweeting at him! Everything he will say or write in the constitution or laws is empty of content, I am not ready to follow the laws.”
“A lawyer who appears too much in the Supreme Court, knows the ruling of the Supreme Court. This is a body that is not related to anyone, is not tied to politics, independent. Mrs. Tali Gottlieb, decided that she is above the Supreme Court. I do not know a person who is above the court The highest and therefore I am even more indignant that this is a lawyer from our ranks,” she added.
At the end, Attorney Ullman said that the police will come into the picture. “She should be interrogated under a warning and a criminal case should be opened for her first and foremost and then also a disciplinary case, since she is a lawyer.”
